Elevener came to life as childhood friends Johan Bergquist (vocals, keyboards, bass) and Andreas Brodén (guitar, drums) joined forces in 2005 to make new music sounding as if the 90's never had existed.

The duo released the Elevener debut-album “When Kaleidoscopes Collide” in July 2008 on AOR Heaven. “When Kaleidoscopes Collide” generated rave reviews and was one of the most talked about debut albums on the AOR scene that year. In January 2010, guitarist Magnus Lindqvist heard the Elevener debut and through a mutual friend. He and Johan got together and soon realized they shared the same taste and ambitions in music and Lindqvist replaced Brodén who had left the project due to other commitments.

As the hunt for the missing pieces began, Johan came to think of drummer Anton Roos (Saffire) whom he had seen playing on the Gothenburg club scene in early 2010.

Thanks to Magnus having played on the cover band circuit with singer Pierre Wensberg (Prisoner, Tommy Denander, Heartbreak Radio) and bass player Robert Garnold (Heartbreak Radio) were asked to join and to Johan's delight Elevener had now evolved into a full band. The new line-up started recording in late 2010, and in February 2011 they hooked up with Martin Kronlund at JM Studios (Paul Young, Phenomena, Overland etc.) to put the finishing touches on the new album called “Symmetry in Motion”.
